Shaving All My Hair Off Was Fun....

But I will never do it again! Not unless I have to! This is worse than waiting for water to boil or that last one hour of work to be over....sheesh

So this is what I was working with before. The picture on the left is from December 2008. The picture on the right is from September 2009. The reason why the big ole fro on the left looks all dusty and filthy is because it is slathered in conditioner because I had just got done taking down some 6+ week old braids. It was so huge I had to take a picture, conditioner blobs and all.

The million dollar question that I get asked all the time "Why Ms-gg, why!!! Why did you cut all that hair off? You aren't going Britney Spears on me are you?" No I am not Britney, Amber Rose, Solange or any other celebrity who decided to shave their heads. I am Ms.GG.

Telling someone you cut all your hair off because it was damaged gets you a crazy look just as quick as if you told them you cut it off because you wanted to. People are so attached to hair. One thing I hate to see is people who are holding on to scraggly see through ends, just so that they can have "long hair." I am so tempted to walk up behind them with a pair of scissors and snip it right on off...I wish I was lying right now but I'm so serious...

So no I am not crazy, I'm not on "that stuff," or anything else. And to be honest, I do not feel like less of a woman either. At times I did, but as long as you look like a woman, no one is going to mistake you for a man (unless you look like Wesley Snipes in the face or Jay Z).

And ladies who are afraid that men will find them less attractive because they are bald/nappy/natural/whatever

Ummm...FALSE! I have a boyfriend and he did not run to Shaneka because I shaved my hair off and to be honest, I think I got hit on more with shorter hair than longer hair. Just do it!
